A little bit of decorating

 We still don't have our tree, but I thought I would share the small amount of decorating I have done so far.   Above is one of the hutch shelves, with vintage jadeite plates and in the center a melamine plate from Wal-Mart.  There are tiny cardinals, a teapot votive holder from Yankee Candle, and a meaningful little wood sign.

Another shelf holds Christmas plates  from Wal-Mart and some jadeite tea cups.

A closer look at one of the plates, which I absolutely love

I didn't get a photo of the top shelf.  But this fun vintage shadow box is gracing the top shelf as it usually does at Christmas time.

This December cross stitch is on the wall in the hallway.

Above is a little display in the living room.  The "I'll Be Home for Christmas" art is new.  To read how I did it, check out my Christmas blog for December 8.
